Firstly, just to let everyone know I am returning to this forum and am going to try and be active even if I lurk more often than not.

I also have some sad news, JD passed away in the middle of October and I was (still am) pretty devastated.

This is the last picture I have of my little eagle:

I would love it if you had a look around his very own gallery here. He was unfortunately a very sick birdie and died at the vet (after I had left). He had liver and kidney failure. My wife and I picked him up from the vet and buried him under a freshly planted camellia tree.

 

I was then convinced to pick up a new baby bird very kindly offered to us by a local breeder (refereed by the breeder of JD)

I can now introduce Pixel, a very chirpy, cheeky baby:

Pixel also has his own, very small gallery here

All I know about Pixel is it's a boy. I will probably be making a post in the behaviour forum as Pixel is flapping about like a crazy bird each morning (around 6AM) and am just wondering if it's because he's scared or just a baby.

Hi Laurie and welcome back to the Forum, sorry to here about JD. but on the good side Pixel looks like a real little cheeky sweetie. Babies tend to flap their wings like that, mine are doing it all the time especially in the breeding cage when they are about 5 weeks old and older.

Good to see you back Laurie and my deepest heartfelt feelings on your loss of JD :( They have a way of worming their way into your heart don't they. Pixel ( great name by the way ) is a real cutie and has some "swank" about him ( show budgie bred maybe ? ) and I hope he fills your heart over the oncoming months and years.

 

:)

Just looked at your photo gallery. They're lovely pictures. JD looks like he was a wonderful little bird.
